Combines With...

You can use Poison Breath as part of a combo to create Clear Mind.

Pair with one of the following spells to create the Clear Mind combo.

• Awful Eye
• Corrosive Ooze
• Feather Tickle
• Filamented Hold
• Lowing
• Maelstrom
• Mind Blast
• Soporific
• Sandspray
• Venom Shell
• Warm-Up

Note: Unlike other job traits, the effect stack for each pair in this group. Each set gives the next tier of Clear Mind for an additional MP Recovered While Healing + 3 effect. A maximum of Clear Mind IV can be achieved granting a max bonus of MP Recovered While Healing +12. Clear Mind V is not attainable.

Notes

• This is a Breath-type spell; its damage is enhanced directly by use of the Saurian Helm, Mirage Keffiyeh or Mirage Keffiyeh +1.
• The formula for this spell appears to be (Current HP / 10) + (your level / 1.25). For example, if you are level 22 and have 400 HP, your damage would be 40+17.6, or 57-58.
• A positive Monster Correlation (when used against Arcana) will increase damage by 25%.
  • Because Undead and Arcana are opposed, there is no negative Monster Correlation.
• Damage is not affected by Magic Attack Bonus or Magic Burst. Magic Burst will only enhance its accuracy.
• Ignores Magic Defense Bonus, but is subject to direct magic resistance (from Proto-Omega for example).
• If Blue Mage is set as a support job, damage is calculated based on the level of your support job.
  • At 75, this causes a loss of 30.4 damage.
• Appears relatively more accurate compared to other Breath-type spells.

Skillchain/Magic Burst Info

Magic Bursts on: Reverberation, Distortion, and Darkness.
